INSTALLATION & SERVICE CONNECTIONS
SECTION 1: MODELS: SC-2 & SC-3
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Set Cooker in place and level appliance using spirit level. Mark hole locations on floor through
anchoring holes provided in flanged adjustable feet.
Remove appliance and drill holes into locations marked on floor and insert proper anchoring devices.
Set Cooker back in proper position.
Re-level the appliance, leveling the unit left to right and front to back. Appliance should be elevated on
the right 1/16" to 1/8" to assure proper compartment drainage. Bolt and anchor appliance securely to the
floor. Seal bolts and flanged feet with Silastic or equivalent compound.
INFORMATION TO STEAM FITTER
Each cooking compartment requires approximately 1 BHP (34.5
IDS
. of steam per hour) to operate
satisfactorily. Therefore, a Model SC-2 requires 2 BHP and a Model SC-3 requires 3 BHP.
Assuming availability of 30 p.s.i. supply steam pressure immediately to the appliance, then pipe sizes of
1/2". 3/4" or 1" will deliver respectively 90, 165 or 285 lbs. of steam per hour to the appliance Heat
Exchanger. From the foregoing to use a 1/2" pipe line would most likely prove inadequate
An extremely important consideration is the pressure drop that will occur through the steam supply line
from its point of origin to the appliance. The greater the length of piping and number of valves and
elbows, the greater will be the pressure losses.
Consider a pressure drop of 1 (one) p.s.i. for each straight length of pipe equivalent to 120 diameters of
that pipe. Thus, a 1" pipe having a straight length of 120" (10 ft.) is equivalent to 120 diameters of that
pipe and will have a pressure loss of 1 p.s.i. through that pipe.
